Based on a variant of gothic, hand-painted letters and popular Mexican graphics. Its modular stroke allows the text flow to have a sequence of modular shapes, alluding to the horns, legs and tail of the chamuco, a character deeply rooted in Mexican popular culture, and which is recreated in each of its variants as a satire.
